HOLA MY DUDES!!!!! Como andan!!

So, this week was super rad.  We worked a ton and had a ton of fun!!

We found a dude to teach a little ways back se llama (his name is) Leonardo.  And i seriously love the guy.  Leonardo is the sweetest purest soul!!  He’s this lil hippy guy who goes around and sells pan (bread) to people and loves Krishna and he’s basically the best!  I love teaching him cuz he’s super real about everything.  And way accepting and way kind.   I’ll send you guys a picture next week!  You’ll love him.  He’s progressing a ton and I’m super excited to learn more about his story!  And he has really awesome friends that have bright blue dreads so you already know we’re tight.

OKAY.  Also!!  This saturday we got the joy of having an amazing visitor...

Who could it be....

ELDER GONG!!!!!

Dude.  It was so rad.  I had no idea that it was going to be so cool!!  He’s such an awesome speaker and so crazy smart and just awesome.  I wasn’t super suuuuper crazyyyy stoked about seeing him just cuz he’s new and i wasn’t really sure about how it’d be, but as i studied and learned more about him, I GOT STOKED!  He’s a legend.  I’m stoked to be able to learn more from him in the future cuuuuz he’s awesome.  And way funny!!!! That was super unexpected!!  He’s hilarious.  It was way way fun to have the conference with him and learn about what he had to teach our mission.

Aaaand i can’t remember the other stuff.

TUNE IN NEXT WEEK FOR MOAR!

I LOVE YOU MY DUDES!!

Conference with Elder Gong

que son las probababilidades? (what are the odds?)

HOLA MY DUDES!
lol so this week i´ve done my best to procrastinate writing the weekly email sooo it´s gonna be more of a weakly email (lol sorry couldn´t help it).

we ended up in 3 arroyos para la capilla abierta este fin de semana y fue genial!!! (for the open chapel this weekend and it was nice!!!!) guys the branch was awesome.  there were children running everywhere inviting people to come in!  It was so super sweet.  we had a cap abi (open house) in the other branch in the same town a month ago aaaaand nada que ver.(nothing happened)  the vibe that this branch has is the best.  their excitement about the gospel and about what they do was incredible! I loved it.

I had some awesome bonding time with an hna in 3 arroyos (not my compu) as we sat and chatted while we performed surgery on her giant hand wart lol.

I taught my comp about the game "what are the odds" this week and i´ve taken some pretty big hits lol send help. and also never eat raw olives.

this week i learned a ton in jacob 5.  im tryna read the BOM before the end of the year aaaaand im real slow about it lol sorry but im stoked cuz i actually learned something in the intense isaiah (idk how to spell that) chapter about the olive trees!
while i was reading it, i noticed that the lord of the vineyard says "me aflige que tenga que perder" (it hurts me that I have to lose) his olive tree a whole buncha times.

that´s what God feels about us.  He LOVES us!  He doesn´t want to lose us!  This whole chapter shows the giant struggles and the hopes that He has for every single one of us.  God knows me personally.  God knows my comp personally.  God knows YOU personally!  God even knows Donald Trump personally!  and He loves us so much that He does everything within His power, and respecting our agency, to keep us on His side and keep giving us the blessings He has for us.

The mission is a giant giant giant giant blessing that God has given me. I am so grateful to have been able to come here and learn what I have and get to know the amazing people that I now know. it´s awesome!

I LOVE YOU MY DUDES!

YOMIES!!

highlights of the week (sorry i have no time lol whoops)
- a nap in the grass in the sun (: in the church cancha (court/yard) because they have fences and the street animals can´t get in and pee all over everything so i knew the grass was more clean than all the other grass in argentina and napped happy

- KILLED A ROACH AS BIG AS MY THUMB (hna linde was aboutta shower and the beast was in the tub sooooo i tried killing it with off and a lighter but it didn´t die so i trapped it in a tupper and we ran and got chemicals from the office lol and blasted that sucker into the next life.  i felt like will smith.)
- Capilla abierta en TANDIL! (training in the town of Tandil) it was super cute and amazing and the people were super sweet and had a ton of fun!  and i realized that spanish from other countries has wayyy better accents than from here.  Except im not a fan of columbian spanish or spain spanish.  weirdos.

- capacitacion en viedma!  The furthest south that we can go in the mission and I LOVE IT. it´s so pretty and green and beautiful down there! I can´t wait to go back!
- we definitely saw the wrong dead person.  we went to go support a new convert cuz her husband just died and so we went down to the direccion (address) that a member gave us (a bar) and then found the right place (a funeral house) and scrambled around til a man pointed us to the room to go.  i entered and didn´t really recognize anyone, buuut i don´t know the woman very well so i thought we were okay.  until i saw the casket.  IT WAS A WOMAN AND DEFINITELY NOT THE MAN (droid) WE WERE LOOKING FOR. hahahahahahaha we hightailed it out of there so fast i almost died laughing.  the dude working at the door of the funeral house laughed really hard with us.  it was an incredible experience.

I AM SO HAPPY TO BE IN TINA YOU GUYS!!! i love the mission (: i love being here and learning so much and helping so many people but really being helped myself.  every day i learn something new and i feel like every day i learn to become more like Christ.  i am so grateful to have taken the chance to serve a mission.  I just can´t express it enough.  the people from argentina are amazing and all the missionaries that have come to serve here have made me better for having met them. and you guys too (; don´t get urselves all worked up.

(also i had the wild wild west by will smith in my head all week lol it was awesome)
I LOVE YOU MY DUDES!
